I'm running TNE and Fina shoot 2x daily . I got very sick Saturday , ears, sinuses , respertory (still very sick). On monday I noticed a possible site infection from a shot in my bicept . But since I was sick I started taking some amoxicillian on Sunday and my arm looks fine .

My real question is what are the symptoms if the actual gear got 'dirty' somehow? 2x a day shoots always leave me with peices of the rubber stopper breaking down and in the gear , which I avoid drawing . I had a site infection before so I know what it looks like and what happens.....but what about dirty gear , could it **** your body up in other areas?

I have a doc appointment today but I'm just looking for any experience here .
